  1. Chinese battery and technology manufacturer CATL is looking to expand its operations to serve electric transoceanic vessels within three years.

    Many see the electrification of heavy-duty cargo ships as too difficult a challenge to overcome. Yet the shipping industry accounts for roughly 3 percent of global emissions.

    At Marintec in Shanghai, China, last week, the head of the company’s marine division predicted that transoceanic electric vessels will be plying the seas within three years.
